I registered on forums. After registration was complete, there was a message, that I'll recieve a confirmation email. It never came. I think it's a reason I can't post anything on forum. Tried to change mail, no luck.
I'd like to join a community, but can't. Any solutions?

When I try to log into the Superbetter community forum the link won't allow me to register when I click on ANYTHING on that page stating that a secure connection has failed. Can anyone help? When I try contacting Superbetter they say they're off grid.

I use firefox as my main browser but cannot access the forums with it. The main forum page appears as one of those half-loaded webpages with everything in a single column and no graphics at all, and opening links to register on the forum or view any pages within it bring up a "peer's certificate has been revoked" secure connection failure.

I can access the site via chrome, but it might be an idea for you guys to troubleshoot the forum asap for firefox users.

The resilience chart loads, but when I try to access the SuperBetter trackers chart, it goes grey and says "loading" but it doesn't load.
I've had this problem for a little less than a week now. My main browser is Firefox and I just recently upgraded, but I've also tried on Internet Explorer and Safari, on various different computers, and it won't work.

I would really love to have an android app (or a mobile-friendly webpage, with fewer graphics and an uncluttered interface). Sometimes, it doesn't work for me to sit down in front of a computer to use SuperBetter (as one of the things I'm struggling with is RSI, on my bad days when I really need a power-up or two it's not always good for me to do).

I have noticed that the activity feed started ti show my ally's activities, too, and I was very happy about it. Now I see it is regarded as a bug. I just meant to say I LIKE IT! It motivates me seeing my ally's activity there. I know I can click to see it anyway, but it is quite a few clicks away and takes long moments, which I do not always feel like waiting. This way it is there as an instant motivation, and feels like we are struggling together :)
I wish it would stay like that!

I recently "lost" several items and their comments from my activity wall. They had been present and visible, but later in the day they were gone. I had one of the email alerts with an ally comment and tried to "find" the missing items again by clicking on the link in the email, but it just gave me a blank page. It's not crucial to find it, but I wanted to post in case others have the same problem.

We’re gutted to admit that for a period of about 24 hours, no activity wall data was able to be saved. Due to one of our servers going down, data was sent but not stored long term (hence disappearing on refresh). You should still retain all of your resilience, but comments/messages and updates are not available.

As someone who’s had a hard drive crash before I know that losing data – even if only for a day – is incredibly frustrating and disappointing. I can’t apologize enough for it happening to all of you. We’re working on putting a failsafe in place so that, should the server go down again, we’ll have measures in place to either capture that data or let you know that it can’t be saved at this time.

Thanks to everyone for bringing this to light so quickly – your fast reporting is what enabled to track down the issue and resolve it. Please continue to bear with us as we work out our beta kinks and make SuperBetter better.

Hi everyone -

We’re gutted to admit that for a period of about 24 hours, no activity wall data was able to be saved. Due to one of our servers going down, data was sent but not stored long term (hence disappearing on refresh). You should still retain all of your resilience, but comments/messages and updates are not available.

Love & respect that you're doing this with integrity and insistence that data/empiricism matters.

Any chance that the positive psychology folks already have useful stuff for you to mine?

I came here hoping for a feedback loop for professional projects that scare me and I avoid: hoping you'll have it going sooner rather than later. Or else I'll have another excuse for not living my life.

Everything that’s on the site currently is backed by positive psychology practices, and just because we ask you to choose injury/illness vs health goal at the beginning, doesn’t mean that project management can’t be your goal.

We’ve had people use this for writing novels, learning a language, playing an instrument, finishing their PhD, getting through/over a divorce, planning a three month journey to Europe – the sky is the limit, and the power packs we have get their power from universal principles, so don’t be afraid to use them to tackle whatever your challenge happens to be!

I realize I wanted to create my own quests, but the quests from removed power packs still clog my quest list. I would like a way to: a) remove all quests form a power pack when I remove that power pack. b) remove quests I do not want to complete at this time individually from the quest list.

Hey everyone! So this fix has been pushed – now when you click on the Power Pack icon (the box with the lightning bolt below the SB icon), you’ll see a tab that says My Power Packs. Click on it, then find the Power Pack you want to remove, click View, then click “Remove Power Pack.” This will remove the ENTIRE Power Pack (including Bad Guys and Power Ups.)

To delete a specific quest from a Power Pack, just find that quest in your quest log, click View, then click “Delete” under the “I Did This” button. I hope this helps, and thank you all for your patience while we got this fixed!

The “Rehearse Relaxation” quest has been removed from Power Packs for new users, but for anyone who added the Power Pack early on, it’s still in the way. It was marked as an “every day for two weeks” quest, so the solution is to mark it as done 14 times. Then it should disappear.

We realize this will give you extra resilience points. Please accept them as a bonus for all the trouble this put you through.

After two feedbacks and replies from Jessica McDonald, I still cannot connect to my ally. I've received two invitations from her and the "accept" button doesn't link. I've gone through the link on the notification email, clicked through the tutorial on allies (several times), but when it ends and says, essentially, try it, I get the "oops" screen with the "try again" button. I am so frustrated. My ally is linked to me but I can't link to her, leaving her ally-less. :( I remember that ally invitations were a problem in beta and they still are.

To everyone who’s been following along with this issue: THANKYOU! Your notes and emails helped us track down a variety of problems related to connecting with allies and, luckily, today I think I can finally say we’ve fixed them all!

In the incredibly unfortunate case that you’re still having problems with ally invites, please send an email to support@superbetter.com and include:
1) Your ally’s email address
2) Your email address
3) Who’s having issues connecting to whom
4) Where in the process you’re getting stuck.

SB is very new, so this probably hasn't come up yet, but do you have ideas for player exit strategies? If so, what are they?

One of the things about setting this up as a game is that it makes self-improvement fun. This fun-ness is removed if a player is tied in, either by a feeling of responsibility to allies, or just by a design quirk that assumes that there will *always* be another hill to climb.

That way lies problematic use because superbetter has become an obligation/job rather than fun. It becomes a demotivational spiral that the player is trapped in because they have obligations, either to their allies or to justify time already spent, to continue climbing an unclimbable mountain. Then you have people trying to get superbetter from superbetter.

Personally, I have identified a string of nested goals, but there is an end point, at which time I would like to "win," and end the game. If I can "win," I am more likely to come back and play again later, instead of eventually just dropping out. In the latter circumstance, I am likely to feel too guilty for bailing on my allies to pick the game back up when I need to.

In a "win" situation, I would need to be able to choose whether I am going to continue to support my allies, respectfully bow out and say goodbye or find a replacement for myself in their ally structure. This would take into account that my 'win' probably won't happen at the same time as theirs, and will allow me to leave without hurting anyone else.

You guys are game designers, so probably have more/better ideas about how to achieve this than I do.

Right now, when you accomplish an Epic Win, you have the option of choosing your next Epic Win, or declaring yourself “SuperBetter”. When you declare yourself SuperBetter, you’ve finished the game – and it encourages you to go out and live the life you’ve created for yourself. We’ll be here when you come back, whenever that is :)

As far as being an ally, you can always be “just an ally” and we’re working on ways to remove yourself from being someone’s ally if you don’t want to (currently, only heroes can break the hero/ally link).

RIght now, I have several quests that need completion every day. But when I tick them off, they don't show if they have been completed already today. Maybe turn the "today" under the View button into "completed today" after completion?

Just sending some love! I've just discovered your app on my iPhone and now have logged on the web. There is A LOT here and the gamification of the plan makes it so much fun. I see my obstacles as zombies and trolls and that by itself motivates me to beat them! Great job! I look forward to updates and improvements! Thank you xo
